DAYS: August 2024 Discussion Thread

OH! Okay. Now I see. It was me who was lost. Now all found. 

I really like Martha in the role. To me she just seems to fit. Looks & seems like Marlena's daughter. If they brought her back I'd like to see her & EJ paired again. I don't know why but she & Shawn just don't seem to work anymore. Maybe too much cheating.

So I have actually thought about how dumb the name Belle is to me.  Not Isabella.  That's a pretty name, but I guess Days was really feeling Beauty and the Beast in 1993.  

I know that's not your point, but I think it's a silly name.  Along the lines of Tate.  I always want to call him Tator-Tot.  But, hey, his mother thought upgrading to Theresa from Jeannie was less dated so there's no taste there.

Fair warning, y’all. Today was bad.

Typical Ron-Jamey crap that seemed like it was written by two dumb 10 year olds. Seriously, they’re a more toxic team than Frons/Phelps/Guza.

I literally have nothing to say about today. Even the Gabi stuff, which could have been good, was ruined by Connie and her part in it. 

And since Irna Phillips was mentioned again, somebody really ought to tell Jamey that Irna would’ve fired his ass faster than she fired Sarah Cunningham.

If Brady ends up back with Chloe, then they can always put Belle with Philip. They can put Shawn with Jada especially since Jada is basically languishing in her pairing with Rafe and Jada/Rafe are pretty boring to begin with. 

I don't have a problem with the names Belle and Tate. At least they're unique. I do get why some people might have a problem with the name Tate though. Tate Black sounds kind of dumb in retrospect. Also I don't really have a problem with Theresa changing her name either because what woman her age is even still named Jeannie in this day and age? That's even dumber in my opinion. Also the names Jeannie Theresa flow pretty well together too so it's a nice bonus.

I have bigger problems with Belle as a character than her name for sure

  Belle just seems like a childish name, which was fine when she was a child, but is kind of silly for an adult.  I always assumed the show would transition back into calling her Isabella.  The show at least had the smarts to stop calling Shawn "Shawn-D" at some point.

Tate is at least a name that I have heard and is fairly trendy.  It just reminds me of tater tots like I said.  

I think Jeannie vs. Theresa is a pretty lateral name change.  They are both kind of outdated?  Although I don't know if Jeannie was even current in 1988.

They slept together on the Titan jet and on a conference room table at Titan.  Two separate events spread out over a few weeks.  I don't think Marlena ever specified where Belle was conceived. lol.  I think the conference room table just gets brought up more often because of Sami.

    • I have to check out his Bela Garody on Search for tomorrow. He was one of the main reasons EON worked for me when I was watching. Truly unforgettable presence. Handsome in the most perverse and sinister way. They don't make faces like that anymore. 
    • My favorite moment in SOAPDISH is the HW taking the star to the mall in NJ to improve "morale"!! 
    • Oh no! The shoulder pads! I will mourn them when they're gone. Please tell me the head pieces and hats remained!?
    • Shout! TV has now added season 26. Not sure what the reasoning for that was, but maybe it was the one that was ready to go... 
    • It's AWFULLY hard to tell.  But out of the (approximately) 16 weeks so far in 2025, Bryton has only had about 12 episodes.  That's significantly less than 1 per week.  Once the actor drops down to less than 1 per week for an extended period of time (such as a 39-week cycle), I start thinking there's no contract in place for him or her.  Surely these folks aren't tying themselves down to a show for a guarantee of 1 or 2 episodes a month.   If I counted right, Bryton has had 21 episodes in the past 24 weeks.  They're either (a) about to kick into high-gear & work his ass off to meet his minimum guaranteed appearances, or else (b) he ain't got a contract that guarantees him squat.  
    • These contract guarantees of 1 ep per month are ridiculous. How can you even have a story if your character apprars 4-5 times in a month? It's sad.
    • It's hard to tell with some actors appearing on average 4 times in a month whether they're recurring or just on a low guarantee contract. Someone recurring  like Beth Maitland can be used a lot for several months then disappear. So the monthly tallies aren't enough to go by.
    • Of the so-called "contract" cast members, I'd venture to say these are recurring: Bryton James, Camryn Grimes, and (possibly) Michael Graziadei.  I've suspected since 2018 that Kate Linder and Christian LeBlanc are recurring.  And I believe we all know Miss Ordway is, because she said so. lol.  
    • Dante blaming Gio instead of his dweeb son and the other dweeb was just ridiculous. Gio's paternity story is going in circles with no reveal. I've already started fast forwarding Drew and his stupid ho Willow's story. Kristina's story is beyond dumb with no great payoff.
    • Sarah (with the English accent) isn't just some random character.  Sarah was once the housekeeper for Eliot Dorn and Margo Huntington.  One of the following 2 scenarios happened a few months ago: (1):  One night, while Margo wasn't at home, and while Oscar the Doorman wasn't at his post, a burglar sneaked into the private elevator, rode up to the penthouse, stole several thousand dollars worth of Margo's valuable diamonds and pearls, and tied-up Eliot Dorn and Sarah the Housekeeper, ensuring that Eliot and Sarah couldn't pursue the burglar back down to the lobby or phone the police to apprehend the burglar. OR --  (2): Eliot Dorn was SLEEPING with Sarah the Housekeeper, and the two of them conspired to steal Margo's jewelry and went on a lavish spending spree and then tied THEMSELVES up to make it look as though a burglary had occurred in the penthouse. Margo Dorn currently believes Scenario #1 occurred, and she's rather annoyed that the "incompetent police" haven't located her stolen jewels yet.  Eliot and Sarah know that Scenario #2 actually occurred.  When Sarah stopped by the Unicorn and saw Eliot kissing Raven Swift, Sarah snidely said, "Oh! This must be Mrs. Dorn!  Nice to meet you, Mrs. Dorn!" Sarah knew good & damn well Raven isn't "Mrs. Dorn" because Sarah worked for Margo Dorn on a daily basis for many months.  That was Sarah's not-so-subtle way of announcing, "I'll be paying a visit to District Attorney Logan Swift and letting him know that his wife is sleeping with you, and I'll be paying a visit to WMON to let Margo Huntington know that you're sleeping with Mrs. Swift!"  lol.
